mccain and his extensive military experience and foreign policy experience, does mitt romney have the same level of expertise in foreign policy that barack obama did in 2008? >> not even close. barack obama, i was chairman of the foreign relations committee. he was on my foreign -- our foreign relations committee for four years. he demonstrated a grasp and a gravity. he had a world view of where america's position should be, how we should interact in the world, how we needed to rebuild alliances, et cetera, et cetera, acted on those from the time he came in. governor romney didn't demonstrate any breadth, any breadth of understanding, and -- and it -- it was a little bit, quite frankly, surprising. >> let's go back to the point you made a second ago about how governor romney seemed to agree with many of the positions that the administration has taken over the last three and a half four years. in your opinion what's the most significant difference in foreign policy between mitt romney and barack obama? >> governor romney showed absolutely no vision of what he thought america's place in

i am falling -- following the president of john mccain, putting out two years of income tax returns and our financial disclosure statements, as required by law. you'll be surprised to see the amazing amount of data associated with our disclosure on line. i do not know who has the microphone. >> the obama campaign filed suit in ohio to try to reduce early voting by a few days for military living overseas. your reaction to that? the you think it is just unfair, going after the military in that way? >> i have not seen that report, so i cannot comment on the specific filing that you describe. i can tell you that i believe our military and the men and women in uniform have an absolute right to speak in this election. their lives are affected by what happens in policies here in this country, and the direction of america. every effort should be taken by the government of the united states of america to assure that every member of the military has the right to vote, and their vote is counted. any effort to impede the right of our military members overseas or domestically in voting would be an e

i remember john mccain react into a statement like that in 2008 and really just drawing the line and say what kind of a person mr. obama was. in this case, mitt romney just passed it by. the sentiments are so strong you don't want to confront or engage that. he said when asked by a reporter later to be true of course not. third, house republican budget committee is now proceeding to do two things. one is to insist on lower overall discretionary name, then was agreed to in the law that came it the end of that dreadful process of holding the debt ceiling hostage. so unilaterally, they declared that a floor for kind and not a ceiling. and now it's a way of avoiding sequestration of the defense budget had proposed a really remarkable set of additional cup acts and means tested programs of one sort or another. i even saw the columnist in this lucid analytic reporters, david rogers at "politico" show his emotion in the course of writing about that. and of course we had yesterday a successful republican filibuster on the senate democratic plan for extending a lower student loan rate and fin

john mccain wasn't the best debater either. he doesn't blow anybody away. >> i spoke with nate silver from the "new york times" who has looked at all the polls and how much ground mitt romney has to gain, as much as seven points, a lot to gain in some of the key battleground states through a debate performance when two guys can be very well prepared, one sitting president. >> kerry did it though against bush. >> i don't know that he made up all that ground. >> it's not the debate, what is it for mitt romney the last five and a half weeks of this campaign to change it? >> i think he does have to go big. he has to have a couple of really big ideas that connect with the american people and where they are. the economy is slowly getting better. there are real doubts about medicare plan that paul ryan has put in place that is beginning to hurt them in the battleground states. i don't think there's one thing that can turn it around for him except the ufo theory which i keep coming back, to and we just had it again in the last two week

the president and john mccain did the same thing four years ago, and in 2004, president bush and democratic presidential nominee john kerry pulled their ads on 9/11 as well. >>> it's pretty safe to say the rock band the silver sun pick-ups will not be endorsing mitt romney. the band asked romney's campaign to stop playing its song "panic switch" at events. the campaign spokeswoman says it was allowed to play the song under a blanket licensing agreement, but it won't play "panic switch" again. >>> some of america's largest companies are paying more to their ceos than they are in taxes. a study by the left-leaning institute for policy studies found that companies, including at&t, boeing and citigroup paid their ceos an average of $20 million last year but paid little or no federal taxes. the study specifically singles out boeing, which paid its ceo more than $18 million, while the company received a tax refund of $605 million. >>> 12 minutes now before the top of the hour. apple may be ready to get into the television business. cnbc's courtney reagan is here with more on that story and more.
